From reading all the reviews on this website of Kemper Lakes Golf Club, one would assume the data and/or reviews were modified in some way. Yet, after having our wedding at Kemper Lakes Golf Club on Saturday, September 19, 2009, I am not one bit surprised at the high, almost perfect scores this venue has received from everyone who has written a review. Jessica Trzop, the Food & Beverage Director/Wedding Coordinator at Kemper Lakes was instrumental in creating the most inviting and memorable atmosphere possible for our special day!
During the planning and preparation for our wedding, every last detail was thought of and discussed with me and my wife. Our requests were valued and respected every step of the way with Jessica and Kemper Lakes. Jessica did a great job of returning phone calls and emails. The wedding was in cruise control once the night began thanks to Jessica and the Kemper Lakes staff. We had nothing to worry about and enjoyed the night, like the bride and groom should!
If you are looking for a wedding reception venue that is accommodating, supportive, organized, and beautiful, Kemper Lakes Golf Club is the place for you! My wife and I have many memories that will be held dear to our hearts forever because of the hard work and thoughtful preparation of Jessica Trzop and Kemper Lakes Golf Club.
From the first moment we saw the reception hall we knew it was the place for us! The room overlooks the perfectly-groomed golf course and lake. The cocktail hour was held outside on the veranda which wraps around the room overlooking this panoramic view of the golf course and the lake. We couldn't have asked for anything more!
This wedding was the best party of our lives! We couldn't have picked a better venue for our reception! We highly recommend Kemper Lakes Golf Club!!

Kemper Lakes Golf Club gave me the wedding of my dreams! Almost everything wonderful about this place has already been said by the other brides on this page, but I will rave some more:
Quality of Service: First off, the venue is gorgeous! My husband and I got married under the willow tree during what was one of the most gorgeous days of this year. This was preferred, of course, but I was not the least bit stressed whatever the weather turned out to be, because I know Jessica (Trzop, the Food & Beverage Director/Wedding Coordinator at Kemper Lakes) and the other amazing staff would have any circumstance under control! Every last person at this venue was unbelievable, from the bartenders, to the chef, to the general staff, to Jessica herself. As for the planning process itself, Jessica made it beyond easy. We had a Jewish wedding, and she knew everything single detail that needed to be planned out, from the table for the head coverings, to the ketubah signing, and everything in between. Trust me, going into the day, I knew Jessica had it under control! Lastly, the food was unbelievable! People are still talking about it!
Responsiveness: Jessica was unbelievably responsive. My mom and I did most of the planning for this, and we often said to ourselves that we felt we didn't need a wedding planner because she was so on top of everything. We considered ourselves very lucky compared to friends of mine that were quoted a price and were left to their own devices.
Professionalism: Jessica is a true professional and excellent at her job. The staff in general, the day of the wedding, was extremely professional.
Value for cost: Excellent. Plus, Jessica will work with you to make the package work for you. This is not the sort of place that tries to take advantage of the fact that you are having a wedding in order to take you for every penny. Trust me, I saw plenty of those sorts of places!
Flexibility: Again, they were very flexible in creating the sort of wedding I wanted and the particulars. My mom and I were frequent visitors to Kemper, peeking our heads in to see the various weddings that were to take place there that night, and we saw everything from black tie to more casual themed weddings held there. Jessica will work with you to create whatever your dream is!
Overall: Have your wedding here! It is truly a hidden gem. It was one of the best days of my life, people have not stopped talking about how beautiful the ceremony was under the willow trees. I sound like a commercial for this place, I know, but I am just so lucky to have found this place and I want other brides to have it too! Thanks Kemper and especially Jessica!

WOW!!! If you want a magical wedding, this is your venue. Our wedding was on Labor Day weekend and it was picture perfect. My wife stresses out very easily when it comes to wedding planning, however, Jessica knows how to take charge and she did an absolutely amazing job to ensure all the small little details were in place. You really can't ask for a better wedding coordinator - she was really spot on with everything, and ensured that everything went smoothly.
Our ceremony was outside and our guests continue to tell us how elegant the event was. The scenery is breathtaking and it's a private and very natural setting which is exactly what my wife and I wanted. Indoors, we had a live band and showed a video montage as well. Jessica ensured that everything went without a hitch and helped to coordinate all the speeches.
I received an e-mail the next morning from Jessica saying how beautiful the event was and even is sending me a CD of pictures that she personally took of the room. It is clear that she goes above and beyond her job duties and certainly loves her job.
A mix of Kemper Lakes with Jessica's 5 star service makes this venue a must for anyone looking to have an elegant and memorable wedding!

My experience with Kemper was fantastic. Jessica was responsive to all my needs and was very accessible by email. The outdoor ceremony site is just perfect and many of my guests who were locals from the area remarked that they couldn't believe there was such a nice site nearby. Compared to other venues nearby, I felt this was a good value for everything it included. It was nice to not have to work with so many vendors since both the food and cake were included and were very high quality. I would highly recommend Kemper.

Kemper was great! My wedding was supposed to be outside but unfortunately it rained and Kemper did an amazing job getting it set up beautifully indoors for the wedding of my dreams. Jessica did an outstanding job and was prepared for every possible outcome. I could not have asked for a better day! Thank you Jessica and all of the staff that made our day special!

Kemper Lakes was the perfect location for our wedding reception. It is a beautiful venue with views of a lake, fountain, golf course and an outdoor patio. Everyone enjoyed talking pictures on the patio during cocktail hour. I knew the second I walked in it was where I wanted my reception. Jessica Trzop was fabulous and assisted me with my every need, want and question. She was very organized, very timely and easy to work with. The room looked amazing the night of the wedding, the staff was great, the bartenders were awesome and the cake was beautiful and very tasty (they use their own cake vendor and it is included in the package). Our friends and family all raved about Kemper and how beautiful the reception was, how good the food was and how much fun they had there, especially the outdoor patio. I personally love how Kemper was set up for dinner - the dance floor is on the far wall and all the tables are together around the room (bride and groom sides are NOT separated). I highly recommend Kemper Lakes and was so happy with the service which was provided. I wouldn't have changed a thing and couldn't imagine having our wedding reception anywhere else! Thank you Jessica and Kemper staff!!!

Our wedding at Kemper Lakes was amazing!!!! When I walked into the reception the room took my breath away. I never dreamed the room would look as beautiful as it did. Guests were amazed with the quality of the food and the beautiful presentation of the cake and sweet table. Lovin Oven Bakery is used for the cake and sweets, which was amazing! The staff was extremely kind and tried to fulfill every need. It was a pleasure working with Jessica Trzop every step of the way. Jessica was extremely professional and helped me with every decision. We could not have been happier with how smoothly the day went and would highly recommend Kemper Lakes!!

From beginning to the end of this process. Jessica Trzop and her staff took great care of us. The food selection and presentation was superb. Everyone raved about the food (A++) and service(A++). The room was elegant, linens to chairs - if there was any changes (and there will be changes) - it will be efficiently with professionalism and a smile. Believe me something is not going to go according to schedule. The setting is beautiful - flowers, lake, outdoor terrace ,paved brick walkway lined with flowers. If you have never planned an event before, I only can tell you Kemper is highly quality. Thank you Jessica and staff providing a wonderful event .

I just got married at Kemper Lakes Golf club and they did an outstanding job in all areas. The staff was very organized and professional in getting everything set up and looking good on time. Their help and experience helped eased a tremendous amount of my stress. It was evident that they do this on a regular basis and set the standard high. The food was also very well prepared and tasted great! Jessica and the other staff members did everything I had hoped for and more. I would highly recommend Kemper Lakes to anyone planning a wedding.

Jessica at Kemper was extremely helpful in guiding us throught the wedding planning process-their staff support of setting up the tables, centerpieces, card table etc took a lot of stress off of us and allowed us to concentrate on 'the bridal couple'--in addition, the weather for the wedding day was less than perfect and Kemper was very supportive and flexible-- their help,caring and support for our event made my daughter's wedding ceremony and reception exceptional. In addition the food was great and our guests commented how they had never been to a wedding that was so beautiful, had such sensational food and great service. thank you kemper.

We highly recommend Kemper Lakes Golf Club. Our daughters wedding was planned in just 2 1/2 weeks due to the groom being in the US Army and deciding they want to be married during his short 4 day leave. We worked with Jessica Trzop, Food and Beverage director at Kemper Lakes, whom we refer to as our wedding planner because she worked with us as a professional to make everything come together as if we had planned for a year. Jessica always returned our calls promptly and was willing to work with last minute changes. The Golf Club is the most beautiful property in the area providing a setting for a dream wedding. The banquet facility has two walls of solid windows connecting to a beautiful patio for guests to mingle and the grounds are beautiful. The staff was friendly, each one of them. Our guests are still talking about the fun they had, how beautiful everything was, all the details were there and the friendly staff. We can't thank you enough Jessica for all you did to make this event special. (Wasmer/Dill Wedding May 31, 2009)

Kemper Lakes was perfect for my wedding. The location is beautiful and the staff has perfected wedding receptions. The food is fantastic, views are gorgeous, and prices are very reasonable. The coordinator was always accessible through planning and always helpful- communication was great. Everything was in place the day of my wedding, I didn't have to worry about anything. I highly recommend Kemper Lakes!

Jessica--
I just wanted to thank you again for the beautiful job that you did for Sarah's wedding last Friday -- it was truly like walking into a "fairyland" when we got there! Sarah was so happy with everything (as were we all)! The tables, the food, the staff -- everything was more than we ever expected! Thank you, too, for all of the help that you gave us -- I never would have been able to pull this off without you!! You even came through on the weather for us!!
We will never forget our "first" wedding experience, Jessica -- it made it all seem so easy. I can't tell you the number of compliments we received on everything at Kemper. Hopefully we can work with you again for one of our other weddings (though this one will be hard to top!).
Thanks again for everything, Jessica!

I always knew I wanted a beautiful, elegant location for my wedding reception. I knew that the food needed to be fantastic, and I knew that I wanted to work with someone who would be reliable and attentive to me. Kemper Lakes rose above and beyond all of my expectations! Throughout this journey, Jessica Trzop has been a true angel to me and my family. I received top notched service from her. If there was a problem, like when my guest list started to get too big, or something I wanted to add Jessica would tell me not to worry and she would take care of it. And she did!! She listened to what I wanted my reception to be, and then she gave it to me. I remember walking into my reception and gasped because it looked so elegant. Our guests are still raving about the food and it truly was fantastic. I had my dream wedding because of Jessica and the fine staff at Kemper Lakes!
